The Calling Buds Remix

Ray is struggling. He lost two fingers in Iraq, and maybe he's lost something more. Or has he just forgotten himself? Perhaps an undemanding job at the local medical marijuana start-up will be just what he needs. But the brave new world of legal dispensaries is fraught with soaring expectations, culture clashes and one snag after another. There's an odd bunch of people working there too, like Caldwell who's maniacally bent on revolutionizing the whole industry. Or Damian, the master grower, who's super cool about everything except working alongside the horticulture specialists. And then there's Lily, as unpredictable as she is pretty.

Ray's cousin Gina worries about him. She's been like a mother, and her husband, Jiggy, also a veteran, is a bit of a genius, but he's so difficult, with his foul-mouthed diatribes, especially the ones directed against state-governed commercial cannabis production.

Between the job and his relatives, will Ray ever find the healing he's looking for?
